Down in New Orleans where everything's fine   All them cats is drinkin' that wine   Drinkin' that mess is their delight when they get drunk   Start singin' all night      Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee drinkin' wine   Wine spo-dee-o-dee drinkin' wine   Wine spo-dee-o-dee drinkin' wine   Pass that bottle to me      Now I've got a nickel, have you got a dime?   Let's get together and get a little wine   Some buys a gallon some buys a quart   When you buy black beer, now you're doin' things smart      Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee   Down on Rempart Street in Willie's den   He would sell but a gill of gin   One cat wanted a bottle of wine   He hooked that cat for a dollar and a dime   Drinkin' wine spo-dee-o-dee
